Tell me again how ToP doesn't matter.

So you question if he should get any credit for all of the offseason adjustments since this is Hoody Senior. And I didn't see you giving him any credit for raining 43 on the Chiefs to somehow help get this team to the SB.
But you blast him when the offense struggles for a day. Hmmmm
This was not a good matchup for the Patriots OL; the Rams DL made them their bitches all day, which was fully expected. And the Rams CB's were better than the Pats WR's and Gronk has been Jimmy Graham'd ….aka...banged up all season. Ive followed the Rams all year; if you remember I've liked the Rams since Vince Ferragamo and Lawrence Mccutcheon kept losing to the dam Dallas Cowbodys. They were WAY more talented than the Patriots. NE had a far superior QB, and a far superior coaching staff. Beyond that I"m not sure where the Pats had advantages.
So they had to find ways to get Edelman open, and hit the injured Gronk a couple key times. Losing Gordon was a big blow to that offense and I'm truly baffled they won the last two games. They moved the ball far better than the Rams in the first half but it was still tough sailing for them and they could not convert any long drives.
That offense has no explosive players at WR's. Edelman is a great route runner; but shame on the Rams for not finding a way to contain him better. And shame on the Rams coaches for getting their ass handed to them.TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWERComment

Now I didn’t watch the game b/c I’m boycotting the NFL for its unjust treatment of Kap, but what is it with you young uns and your Madden mentality? If the game ain’t as explosive as the Tet Offense, it’s boring.Originally posted by esoxx View Post

How can you hate Bielema? What'd he ever do to Wisconsin fans besides win and win big? He elevated the program. He wanted a new challenge - I don't fault the guy. He went as far as he could at UW. Few would argue with that.
'twas not the most exciting game but I loved it. Two great defensive coaches going at it. Pats got it done when it really mattered.Comment

It matters if your QB is terrible. ToP wasn't the problem. It was the symptom of failure.Originally posted by bobblehead View PostBud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment

Not in any particular order:Originally posted by call_me_ishmael View Post
1. Used to pick fights with kids and then jettison them off the team
2. Was a drunk*
3. Not a bowl game winner (2-4)
4. Left for what was supposed to be a better opportunity and was worse off
5. Not a particularly good game day coach or planner
*rumored, not witnessed personally, but there is a substantial amount of circumstantial evidence
Unless you ran into to him prior to him having a hired driver, he wasn't an accident waiting to happen
1. Good recruiter (though oddly he could never find enough O lineman or WR which hurt him and Gary Anderson)
2. Lovely conniver who would take the spirit of the rules and chuck them out the window (that he did this against Penn State, in retrospect, seems like a blow for justice)
3. Loved the public glad handling part of the job
4. Good defensive coach and had good STBud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment

He did, but that is becoming more and more common. So its a bad look for a team having a good season, but not quite as earthshaking as it seemed at the time.Originally posted by red View Post
Plus Barry went full Schembechler and wanted a Wisconsin man coaching the bowl game. Which worked out OK for him as Barry was there and the kids asked (I hope that is actually what happened) him to coach them in the bow game.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Rams really folded after getting to the big game by a lucky call to begin with to get there
They have 22 free agents headed into the offseason on their current roster. I wonder if they are a one year flash in the pan?Comment

PATS are defending RAMS by playing 5UP on run downs . Instead of traditional 4-2 sub front, they are effectively playing an over 5-1 front This is to reduce the push combos on the rams wide zone scheme.

That NFL 100 year anniversary ad, here are the players:

Glad I was not wrong and saw Larry Little and Paul Warfield with Czonka sipping champagne as the undefeated '72 Dolphins! Was my second favorite ad just behind the ad that warned you that what you didn't know about your garage could kill you.
